richie dagger Dec 2010
Surrounded by people I've never felt so alone
This isn't where I wanna be but I feel I have no home
Light fades as I'm stripped of what means most to me
Darkness consumes my soul trapping me in this twisted reality

Smoke the cigarette, Drink the beer
Feel no pain
Smoke the cigarette, drink the beer
It's all the same
I look to the sky to find an answer
To try to find an escape
But the answers just bring more questions
Is this my fate?

Entranced with misery, fills my body with fear
Thoughts not foreign to me but none that I can bear
Singled out and forgotten by a jury of my own peers
As i pass out on a water bed made of my own tears


Smoke the cigarette, Drink the beer
Feel no pain
Smoke the cigarette, drink the beer
It's all the same
I look to the sky to find an answer
To try to find an escape
I finally found the answer
This is my fate

I'm screaming at a wall
Speeding towards a red light
I want so hard to believe in everything
Everything seems hollow
It all has some kind of plastic exterior
Empty shells
I find it really hard to believe
In anything without substance
I'm running in circles
Never reaching any destination
I'm stuck in a rut
It's spiraling

Black...

White...

My mind is twisted
Contorted
Tied into a million knots

Spewing
W     a      n    d       e      r     i      n     g

It's uncontrollable
I'm wearing thin
I want to blow into thin air

It's a jungle
Hectic
Spiteful
Prideful
Wonderful

Destructive
Up the ante
Raise the flag

Living in an iron lung
Wasting away from the time of conception

Original sin
Born of chaos
Forged of chaos and destruction
The Annihilation man

Running on fumes
Pressing harder on the gas
We've burned all the fuel
Now there's nothing left

We'll set fire to our minds
Sifting through the ashes of our fears
Tearing open all the old wounds
While creating more that will never heal

What goes around comes around
Once again and once more
Run full circle, stuck
In the minds revolving door

These empty eyes are being drained
By this evolution of culture
Reversing back to one-celled creatures
Front row seat to the never ending horror feature

The white ones get stripped bare
The black are killed and disposed of
Like the were never here

Make the same mistakes
Over and over again
Then your fear rapes
But you're so willing to slip it in

You drop down onto your submissive knees
Spew out ******* apologies
Your permissive mind leaves you vulnerable
Anything but invincible

Dream of a heaven so high in the sky
Dying to get there
Living in sin, don't wanna try to get out of the grave you dug
Of this Hell hole of despair

One poisonous idea flowing underneath my skin
Injected into my bloodstream through a dirt syringe
Take advantage of, use and abuse me
Do whatever you want, I have no dignity
Crawling through gravel and spit
Swimming through of sea of *******
Infection spreads starting in my ears
Bringing light to my darkest fears

And now I'm gone

The world is coming to an end...imploding
Getting ****** into itself and I'm falling
I want the tranquility
Completely solitary
Floating through space with this
Chaotic harmony

Treasures are all buried and forgotten
Maps are lost and the bones are rotten

Crawl back to my cave where nothing can touch me
Invincibility is reality
Except for me, I'm in hiding
Can you find me?

The snakes creep up your body
Constrict around your throat
Into the mouth of the beast
Stealing your breath
In the bowels of the snake pit
You'll never choke

I've drank the blood from its mouth
I have received the serpents kiss

Gears are turning
Fires are burning
Guts are churning
Hearts are yearning
Gears are grinding
Time is winding
What we're finding
Is we're falling

                                            I've fallen from grace
                                            It's me against the world

Fight the war in my head

                                            I've fallen from grace

Fever beats inside my head

                                            It's me against the world              

Dancing in fire

                                            I've fallen from grace

Flames just burn brighter

                                            It's me against the world





                                            I've fallen from grace
                                            It's me against the world
